Cincy among Reed's suitors?

This should be interesting....

Good luck Jeff. At least you are guaranteed your salary.

Last thing I want is a cry-baby kicker.

I always love when a guys gets cut, then sign with an in-division rival

They were looking for another potential troublemaker. Watch out towel dispensers of Cincy.

Kickers are a dime a dozen. can,t afford to be a cry baby.

Way to show those dumb old Steelers Jeff. Cry about the turf, the fans, etc. They cut your ass and it cost you over a million dollars. You really showed them!!!

Why did the Steelers franchise a kicker?

At least with Cincy, he won't have to worry about missing kicks with the game on the line. They're out of it by the third quarter most of the time.

Oh, and that's "Cincy," FN. "Cinci?" Really? Would you name your daughter that?

Exactly. Why pay that kind of money to a kicker that is UFA in a few months when your season is already over?

Why bring the dumb **** in at all? He's a malcontent and just a kicker.

Kickers have no souls, everybody knows that.

You won some big games for us in the past,...lol, hell you've lost a few too....ur ok with me..good luck to ya

Some of them are ass souls.

The move by the Steelers was as much a move to get rid of a guy who had a nasty habit of partying too much and getting in to trouble as a football move. Big Ben does not need guys like Reed around him. Reed just was not worth the risk anymore.

so liquored up kickers are more the norm. Apparently Peyton was onto something a few years ago with Vandercrap.

Long story short....Or recipie for being released:

-Parties too much, may have serious problem with alcohol, gets in trouble with the law.
-Mouthed off about the organization before the season and called them liars.
-Having God-awful season this year missing 7 of 22 attempts.
-Makes excuses, rips fans, throws tantrum.

And may that soul rest in peace.

Guys like George Blanda and Gordie Howe inspire us over-the-hill pick-up athletes to keep going.
